Fashionable styles
However, we will consider not only summer options, because most of them are universal, they will stay with you at least until autumn-winter, and will perfectly complement your wardrobe for work, study, dating, and leisure.
You don't have to have all of them - buy something that fits into your individual style and will definitely delight you. Otherwise, the thing is not worth the money.
Romantic ties
Perfect for young women with flawless abs. Drawstrings developing in the wind give special romance to such models. Draperies, a long, widening sleeve and even a deep neckline are appropriate.
Pair with tiered pendants or oversized hoop earrings. Ribbons can be tied into a small bow or left fluttering in the wind. Romantic, summer-like.
Open shoulders
Such models are especially loved by celebrities. It is not necessary to purchase such a thing - you can stylize an existing white shirt in a classic men's style. Unbutton a few buttons and lower them over your shoulders.
Peeking lace under the white fabric looks delicate and sexy.
As an option - with built-in lace combinations, or decorated with chains, various weaves. You can choose a product with sleeves and delicate satin straps or straps made of fine chains - these are also actual styles.
If you open your shoulders, do not forget to use creams with a UV protection factor - the skin of the neck and décolleté is especially susceptible to photoaging.
Patch pockets
This is a militaristic option, which, however, adds femininity to the image if it is made of light materials. Patch pockets add volume to the chest.
Choose oversized and it will complement almost any look.
Pay attention to the details: there should be no buttons in the middle of the sleeve and no tabs to raise the sleeve itself. This is not a trending element, completely outdated - leave it in 2013.
Satin
Look for quality satin. Cheap models are notable for their ugly shine, they easily give puffs.
In such cases, you can also purchase fitted styles, if the sleeves are large enough (wide or with a flashlight) and a wide neckline. In such clothes you will feel like a real princess.
Combine with any elements - even with jeans, even with trousers, even with skirts, and do not forget that satin loves accessories.
The frills of their cotton and linen
Romantic retro styles are what you need. Plenty of ruffles, elegant cuffs that wrap around thin wrists, natural material, many buttons, chunky cotton lace.
Let nothing hinder your movement. Real French style, isn't it?
Translucent and transparent
And here fantasy is where to roam. Even organza and the finest mesh materials can serve as material. Below - top to match. Can combine chiffon and silk of different weights. It is good if it is partially masked by the decor.
Appliques to match are interesting, animalistic and floral are the most popular. Any cut, even a regular shirt. It is better to combine with strict elements, because such a blouse itself is a rather bright accent.
Scarf ribbon
It seems that this style has always been popular. Ribbon scarf will perfectly accentuate a graceful neck and fragile shoulders. It is desirable that the product be made of lightweight material - thin satin, chiffon, silk, satin, viscose.
You can tie ribbons in different ways:
- strict bow;
- easy free knot;
- bow decorated with a brooch;
- if the ribbons are long enough, you can wrap them once around the neck and leave free ends;
- add contrasting ribbons - black, pink or even braided laces - this idea was actively exploited by designers, judging by the latest shows;
- loose ribbons not tied, long or short.
Deep neckline
Low-cut options can have long flared sleeves, flounces. Lightweight fabrics.
Unlike outdated low-cut styles, the current ones do not look vulgar, because they do not emphasize the breasts too deliberately and do not involve wearing a bra.
The neckline may even be below chest level. The main thing is that in general it does not look ridiculous and defiant. Get inspired by design solutions.
Bishop Sleeve and Ornamented Cuffs
For holiday outings. Such models speak for themselves, so choose neutral clothing items and accessories for them.
Straight fit
Finally, let's come to the most versatile, classic and at the same time elegant - straight cut. There should be at least one such blouse in the collection, it will become the basis for many outfits. Choose consciously.
What are the criteria?
Thick fabric, flawless fit, correctly designed patterns, straight lines.
As well as on linen, it is definitely not worth saving on such an element. He will help you out all the time, and you will forget about the phrase “nothing to wear”. Classic trousers with a high or low waist, bermuda shorts (incredibly relevant for several seasons, by the way), jeans and skirts are absolutely any, completely different shoes.
Cutouts along the sleeves
Here we also include a thin piquant cutout along the back along the back. It is noticeable from one angle, not from another. Longitudinal holes along the loose sleeves look strict, sexy, evening-like.
Complete with closed bottom, sleek styling, clutch and pointed toe shoes. The image of the fatal lady is ready.
How to choose
First of all, rely on what products you already have in your wardrobe. You should not buy things that are combined with a minimum of clothing or do not go well with anything at all. In other words, stick to smart shopping principles.
What exactly is not necessary to choose?
- Avoid white classic fitted blouses that fit exactly to your figure, with an abundance of darts. Such models look extremely irrelevant, and can ruin the whole image.
- Embroidery decor. A few years ago, embroidery on a white shirt was an indisputable trend, but today this technique has become boring and does not correspond to modern fashion trends.
- Partially or completely made of guipure. Unlike trendy models, these look tasteless and even vulgar.
- An abundance of decorative elements, including rhinestones.
- Basque, lace out of place (especially black), etc.
- The fame of fabric chokers has already died down, although they sometimes flicker on the podium.
Today there are fitted blouses, but they look completely different from the old-fashioned models with darts.
Tips for Plus-size
You should not pay attention to the options for a fitted cut, they obviously will not produce a good effect. If there are areas that you would like to hide, it is worth choosing a straight line.
Materials are applied to the body in different ways. To hide imperfections, it is advisable to use denser ones - cotton and linen.
Plus-size girls often have problems with the upper arms. In order not to emphasize them once again, you can choose a model with a sleeve ¾, rather than open your arms completely. This will make the look more harmonious.
We also remember that patch pockets, ruffle decor and other volumetric elements visually make the full figure more massive. It is better to add volume where it is lacking. For example, in case of imbalance: a thin “bottom” and an impressive “top” or vice versa.
Be careful when sizing. Plump and curvy girls often cannot find the right size - sometimes it does not fit on the chest, sometimes it is narrow in the shoulders, etc. We are all very individual, and the patterns on which the clothes are made often correspond not to the features of the figure of real girls, and not to the nymphs from the covers of magazines.
Or it is ideal to sit on the shoulder line, but too loose in the waist and chest area. Unfortunately, such shortcomings are striking and make the image look sloppy.
And one more important detail that many people forget. The width of the collar should correspond: the larger the woman, the wider the collar. In practice, you will see that following this rule helps a lot to balance the image, make it more harmonious.
Variety of materials
If you need a classic shirt for men, choose thick materials, preferably natural: cotton, linen. Such models must keep their shape well, otherwise the thing will look unpresentable.
Lighter materials - silk, viscose, modal, satin, polyester are ideal for “flying”, loose garments. Choose fabrics carefully.
Cheap materials can ruin the whole image if they do not fit the figure correctly and produce the desired effect.
What to wear with
This is the most versatile piece in your wardrobe. Add a few items and you have a whole capsule. She is good in that it helps to create absolutely diverse images.
More classic options - austere, tailored in a masculine style - “love” accessories. A chain with unusual links, large earrings, a watch: all this will add a special chic, if used in moderation.
Today, sports style dominates, and therefore we cannot refuse a combination of classic or romantic things and sports elements.
A common pattern: a loose blouse, jeans and pumps. Complement with a small, contrasting solid rectangular bag, and you will not take your eyes off you.
For smart, evening outfits, a trouser suit with a translucent blouse in combination with v-neck pumps is perfect.
For example, look fresh with red or white high-waisted pants if you're tired of black. The same can be said about skirts: a red midi is a great addition to your outfit.
